History Channel star cited for disorderly conduct during Erie visit

The star of the History Channel show, "Counting Cars," left Erie recently with a disorderly conduct citation after Erie International Airport police accused him of raising a ruckus over lost luggage.

Daniel N. Koker, 48, known to fans of his show as "The Count," was given a non-traffic citation after airport police said he became belligerent and "aggressive" when he was informed of his lost luggage on the evening of July 17. Koker, of Las Vegas, had flown into Erie for two meet-and-greet sessions during the Roar on the Shore motorcycle rally, which ran July 18-20.

It turns out that Koker's baggage was behind the counter of the airline he was dealing with the whole time, airport Police Chief Ian Bogle said.

The citation was filed in Millcreek Township District Judge Paul Manzi's office on July 24. Koker pleaded guilty to the charge on Tuesday, and he was fined $10 and ordered to pay $140.50 in court costs, according to court documents.
